Abstract
A router instruction processor for a digital document delivery system interacts with one or more electronic inserts and a bill processing server to function as a general document fulfillment server. The router instruction processor makes use of the electronic inserters and bill processing server to ensure that documents as contained in Send Request objects are presented to their destinations according to sender requirements and recipient preferences. The router instruction processor further ensures the sender requirements are not compromised by recipient preferences to the extent that conflict may arise.
